@fager_doctor @uniformcritic This is obviously bonds pre steroids

@uniformcritic Steroids allowed hitters to make good pitchers like Drabek look like they were tossing softballs in a beer league.

Random 90s at bat: Doug Drabek vs Barry Bonds (August 7, 1994).

@AugustSolstice @ItsKingSlime People calling him a "clown" arent associated with or around Lamelo or the Hornets to even know what theyre talking about. Everybody around the Hornets says the exact opposite but the dumbass national media that watch two games a year make their own bs narrative

@ItsKingSlime Ehhh. This feels lame. On the court and off the court things get talked about when you’re a celebrity. The fact of the matter is that LaMelo shows a lot of immaturity both on and off court. Was calling him a clown necessary? No. But it wasn’t necessarily inaccurate either.

Lonzo Ball DEFENDS his brother LaMelo and says there was no need for personal attacks after Nick Wright called him a “clown” that acts like an “immature coddled teenager” due to LaMelo tripping Bam Adebayo during the play-in game 😮👀 “Nick Wright don’t play… Somebody’s giving him stuff to say to get clicks… He was attacking stuff that has nothing to do with hoops, that’s not your job”

@EdEnzo8 Would be our bonafide every day starter right now

Traded him away for free, for a struggling Catcher at that time. ✌️ 😂 It’s not CY’s fault tho!!

Danny jansen is pissing me off

@JoeJHoyt Overton will not start be fr

Cowboys starting Week 1 defense last year vs. potential defensive starters this year:

@ThunderBoltsTV @HaterReport This same person will defend lu dort

@HaterReport He dirty asf and a loser ngl

Dawg LaMelo Ball really just be out there doing whatever 😭💀

@JohnsJerm Raking right now. Also freeman. Smith been trash since last june

@mpike0244 Foscue is terrible

Smith better be careful cause Foscue is waiting

People gas Langford up every year after spring training and every year its the same thing

@British_Buzz I dont think theyve ever retroactively suspended a player specifically for a flagrant unless it was for an accumulation of flagrant points(draymond '16)

Crew chief confirms the LaMelo Ball–Bam Adebayo play will be reviewed by the league. There’s a possibility LaMelo Ball faces further disciplinary action, with suspension the worst case scenario. This one might not be over yet.

@_AndrewTucker @jga41agher Bad back

@jga41agher Am I missing something? Why is Kon not playing at all in OT? I get he’s shooting poorly but seems like a weird decision…

The Play-In Tournament is NBA cocaine. Do I love it? Absolutely. Is it good for the game? Who cares just give me more.

@receptionlivid @GrantAfseth Kon is the second option

@mpike0244 @GrantAfseth Advanced stats only show you some things, not all...and don't take into account the situation. Only what's happening. Comparing what cooper is doing on a bad Mavs team where HE is the only guy to Konn who's the 3rd, maybe 4th option on that team and isn't doubled is not the same

I’m not saying this to push a pick for ROTY, but I have covered every game Cooper Flagg has played. I don’t have a vote, though, so it doesn’t matter. However, the perception for awards is always entertaining to discuss, though. This is the same argument I remember seeing against Paige Bueckers for Rookie of the Year season with the Dallas Wings and I don’t agree with it. Some rookies join teams in different phases that already did their losing in previous seasons and have building blocks in place like the Charlotte Hornets do with LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller, among others. They don’t need to keep losing. They’re ready to go for it now. Cooper Flagg’s team has to lose this season to add a piece that the Hornets already added previously. If you switch Flagg and Knueppel, the Dallas Mavericks would still be losing a lot and the Hornets would still be winning. In my opinion, Charlotte would likely be even more successful with Flagg, though.

@Otheryanmurphy @JoeDellera Games from january and december with completely different rosters are relevant how?

@mpike0244 @JoeDellera They blew out the suns but lost to the clippers twice and both times the clippers were favorites.

The Western Conference Play In Teams would all be OUT of the East Playoff Picture.

@Otheryanmurphy @JoeDellera Pure fiction. Hornets just blew them out as favorites

@JoeDellera And yet I would wager that the suns and clippers would be favored against all the east play in teams and possibly Philly. And only small dogs against Atlanta and Cleveland.

@HoopSector Okongwu would be sick at the 4 for Charlotte

There's genuinely no better fit for Scottie Barnes than Charlotte. Miles Bridges, Josh Green and as many picks as it takes, please and thank you

@dsgill87 @Out_of_Hornets Hornets

@Out_of_Hornets Re division. If hornets somehow tie hawks in standings, do we know who has tiebreak?

Meaningful nba games today Hornets vs Timberwolves (edwards out) Celtics vs raptors (we need celtics to win) Magic vs Pelicans (need Pelicans to win)

@Nunzio_sim I see what watching this type of basketball on a nightly basis has done to your brain

Melo literally had a reach in foul on Embiid and got free throws for it, but they won’t post that

@Yayawhutever 76ers have way more ft attempts

@whateverbs99 Update?

Only people that disagree with this are teenagers btw
